Question

Arnold ate 1/4 pizza on monday . he ate 1/ 6 of what was left on tuesday . how much pizza did he eat on tuesday .​

Answer 1

Amount eaten on Monday = 4 / 7

Amount left over after Monday = 1 - 4 / 7 = 3 / 7

Amount eaten on Tuesday = 1 / 2 of 3 / 7 = 3 / 14

Therefore,

Total fraction of pizza eaten = 4 / 7 + 3 / 14 = 8 / 14 + 3 / 14 = ( 8 + 3 ) / 14 = 11 / 14

Amount left = 1 - 11 / 14 = 3 / 14

Ans. 3 / 14 of the pizza is left
